I have a question if anyone can answer!!

does the icv on the m50 pull air from the non vacume intake boot?
if so does this mean that the hose going to the intake boot can be moved to pull air from the engine bay?
i would of course fit a filter on the end of the hose but the idea for me is that i want to try and have no hoses attachted to the boosted intake piping so that it is a direct flow to the throttle plate without any chance of boost leak
